Tong Liben went to the Ministry of Rites with an old face, wanting to temporarily borrow a few taels of silver for emergency. Although Tong Liben has never done this kind of thing, he has heard that someone has done it, and as a colleague, he will help one or two. But Tong Liben not only did not borrow the silver, but was sarcastically ridiculed by the boss of the Ministry of Rites, so angry that Tong Liben almost fought with his boss. The more he thought about it when he returned home, Tong Li, who didn't want to live anymore, left a suicide note to kill the dead in kind, and committed suicide with a rope.

Tong Liben's suicide itself is not a big deal, but it was expanded by the Ministry of Rites that Zhang Juzheng must implement the substitution in kind and forced Tong Liben to death. Hundreds of officials of the Ministry of Rites and some low-level officials mourned for Tong Liben, which was actually aimed at Zhang Juzheng and Wanli New Deal. Hundreds of officials jointly asked Zhang Juzheng to give an explanation to Tong Liben's family on behalf of the cabinet and the royal family, otherwise everyone would collectively resign and no longer be this angry bird official.

Zhang Juzheng was forced by the situation to decide to bow for Tong Liben, but Feng Baohe Dongchang let Zhang Juzheng go slowly. Before Zhang Juzheng came to Tong Liben's house, he heard that Tong Liben's house caused a fire and burned people to death because of the large number of people, paper ties, and small houses. Zhang Juzheng had no choice but to organize everyone to fight the fire, and at the same time, he went back to his house and did not go to Tong Li's house. After the incident, the officials who made trouble at Tong Li's house and targeted Zhang Juzheng were punished, and those who were burned to death were also compensated. The most pity is Tong Liben's wife and children, the son was burned to death because he was disabled and could not escape, and his wife was also missing. Later, the servant found a charred female corpse in the ruins, and it was estimated that she was Tong Liben's wife. Because Tong Liben's family died, the pension was given to Tong Liben's eldest son, who studied in his hometown and gained fame.

The list of people who shouted for Tong Liben and asked Zhang Juzheng to come out and apologize is almost exactly the same as the list that Qian Laojiu gave Zhanxiao. Because these people offended Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the cabinet, they have not been promoted in the past seven or eight years. These people still have the same position and grade, and now they have joined forces to use Zou Yunbiao's matter to target Zhang Juzheng. Qin Tai finally understood a little why Gao Gong said that he was being used when he saw Gao Gong at that time. It turned out that everyone thought that Gao Gong's people were using Tong Liben's matter to make trouble, and wanted to trip Zhang Juzheng and let Gao Gong come back to preside over the overall situation. Now it seems that these people are not Gao Gong's people, at least not to let Gao Gong come back as the head of the cabinet. These people are very likely to be Zhang Siwei's people, and Zhang Siwei wanted to squeeze out Zhang Juzheng and himself as the first assistant of the cabinet. At that time, Lu Tiaoyang had just returned to the capital, and he had no power or ability to organize so many lower-level officials to make trouble together. Since these people made trouble under Zhang Siwei's arrangement back then, it should be Zhang Siwei who directed them to use Zou Yunbiao to make trouble behind their backs.

Qin Tai handed the book to Zhan Xiaoxiao along with the list given by Qian Laojiu, and asked Zhan Xiaoxiao to hand over the things to Feng Bao after the people from the East Factory came. Feng Bao will understand Qin Tai's intentions after reading this list and books. Qin Tai went back to the room by himself and tried his best to recall and record the conversation between him and Zhang Yi. Qin Tai hopes to find clues in some details, because sometimes some details determine the key to solving the case.

Just when Qin Tai was reminiscing and recording the conversation between him and Zhang Yi, the people from Dongchang sent three documents, and when they left, they took away the things that Zhan Xiaoxiao wanted to give to Feng Bao. Unlike other yamen, the person who delivers the item not only cannot check the contents at will, but also needs the recipient to check the complete packaging before signing. Once the delivered item is lost or the outer packaging is damaged, it means that the messenger has failed the task and will be punished very severely. This kind of mistake is called failure, and the implementation of discipline is called the implementation of family law. The East Factory is stricter for those who do not complete the task, because the high-level officials of the East Factory are all eunuchs, so the punishment is called the execution of palace rules. Cutting off hands and feet, gouging out eyes and tongues is light, often picking off the meridians of hands and feet, or even beating half dead, so it is better to live than to die clean. So Zhan Xiaoxiao doesn't have to worry about the things in it being seen by others, and she doesn't have to worry about someone intercepting them halfway. But even Feng Bao and Zhan Xiaoxiao didn't expect that this information was read by Han before it was sent to Feng Bao. The people from the East Factory sent this thing to the headquarters of the East Factory, and the people from the headquarters needed to hand it over to Feng Bao overnight. On the way to Feng Bao's house, the person who delivered the things found an identical outer packaging and repacked the information into the bag. It is impossible for Feng Bao and Zhan Xiaoxiao to see the outer packaging at the same time, and they don't know that the thing has been opened and seen. This man wasn't a big deal, so he didn't know what it meant, but he would write it down and report it to his superiors. It seems that he is subordinate to Dongchang, but he is definitely not Feng Bao or Zhang Juzheng's person, if Feng Bao or Zhang Juzheng is present, he can be sure that this person is Zhang Whale's person at the first time.

Not to mention that Feng Bao received the information given to him by Qin Tai and his wife, would he find someone to find relevant information overnight. Let's talk about the three pieces of information that Feng Bao asked someone to bring to Qin Tai and his wife. As soon as Qin Tai and his wife arrived in the capital, Zhan Xiaoxiao personally conducted an autopsy for Yu Niang and determined that Yu Niang was not only poisoned, but also the name of the poison was "Drunken Begonia". Feng Bao immediately asked someone to find out the information about the poison drunken begonia, and at the same time re-transferred Yu Niang's file. Qin Tai asked for information about Zhou's mother, and Feng Bao also asked someone to bring it to Qin Tai. The archives of the East Factory are still Feng Bao's territory, so all the information that Feng Bao wants will be available immediately. Yu Niang and Zhou's mother are both more important figures in Zhang Juzheng's family, so their information is not difficult to find. The information about the Taoist priest's poison drunken begonia is very scarce, and not too many people pay attention to it, and it took a lot of thought and effort from the people in the archives to find this information.

Drunken begonia is a rare poison that is rare and rare because of its medicinal properties and the special nature of the material. Drunken Begonia was not originally a poison specially used to kill people, but a drug used to assist doctors in anesthetizing patients. It is said that as long as the amount is controlled, it can play an anesthetic role, and it was once mistaken for the "Ma Boiling Powder" developed by the divine doctor Hua Tuo. People who take it will be drowsy and unconscious, and from the outside, they will be slightly drunk, and there will be no sequelae after waking up. Especially after giving it to some female patients, they look lazy and slightly drunk, just like Begonia Spring Sleep, so they are named Drunken Begonia. In the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, there were several cases of using drunken begonias to violate female patients, and the name of drunken begonias became known to everyone, and the government ordered that drunken begonias could paralyze other people's nerves and make people lose resistance, and if the dosage was not well controlled, people would die, so they ordered that drunken begonias should not be used, and drunken begonias became a banned drug. However, this drug, which was banned among the people, was immediately used by some people with special missions. They found that Drunken Begonias could not only make people die silently, but also not easily detect the cause of death, so Drunken Begonias became their special poison to complete the murder task. Later in this organization, traitors appeared, and the traitors not only took away the finished product of the drunken begonia, but also stole the prescription of the drunken begonia. Soon after, a mysterious killer group appeared in Jiangnan, an organization that used a unique poison to kill people, and this organization had poison that could be on a par with the Tang Gate in eastern Sichuan. It was later confirmed that this poison was a drunken begonia.

In the Ming Dynasty, this poison called drunken begonias was controlled by a family on the rivers and lakes and became the heirloom of this family. The people up and down of this family named Hanjiazhuang are all surnamed Han, and the drunken begonia is the unique poison of this Hanjiazhuang. It is said that in order to ensure the safety of the prescription of the drunken begonia, this Hanjiazhuang issued a family rule that was both strange and unacceptable. All daughters of the Han family are not allowed to marry before the age of thirty, and they must recruit a husband when they marry after the age of thirty. At the same time, the daughter-in-law of the Han family must cut off contact with her mother's family after entering the door, and the daughter-in-law and aunt who have been in the door for less than ten years are not allowed to leave the scope of the Han family village casually. This is to ensure that the drunken begonias will always be unique to the Hanjiazhuang family.

Fifteen years ago, Hanjiazhuang appeared in the rivers and lakes for the last time, and there has been no whereabouts since. The reason was because of a wrong decision by the wife of Hanjiazhuang. It was probably more than thirty years ago when Qin Tai checked the information, and Qin Tai had not yet been born at that time. The wife in charge of Hanjiazhuang couldn't stand the pleading of her nephew, and finally did something that violated Hanjiazhuang's ancestral teachings. But at that time, the husband of the owner of Hanjiazhuang, who was also the wife of the family, had just passed away, the children were minors, and the other elders in the family lived relatively scattered. I don't know that the wife of the family violated the ancestral teachings to meet her mother's family without authorization. Her nephew had come to report that their home had been attacked by the enemy and almost wiped out, and the nephew had escaped to ask his aunt to avenge his family. The lady in charge is a weak woman, even if she wants to help her mother's family avenge, she has no ability, and the only tool is drunk begonia. But the wife in charge can't use the drunken begonia without authorization, and she can't lend the drunken begonia to her nephew.
